Effects of a 4‐week free‐sugar avoidance during periodontal therapy: An explorative randomized controlled clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the effect of a 4‐week free‐sugar avoidance on periodontal parameters during periodontal therapy. Methods Twenty‐one patients with untreated periodontitis and daily free‐sugar intake were allocated to a sugar avoidance group (SAG) and a control group (CG).

Dental‐implant inflamed surface area: A quantification and simulation study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is an oral inflammatory disease with increased incidence across the population as linked to the wide use of dental implants to replace missing teeth. While the recent World Workshop Classifications provided a framework for clinicians to diagnose and assess the severity of peri‐implantitis, an objective assessment of

Salivary advanced glycated end products, their receptors, and aMMP‐8 in periodontitis patients with varying glycemic levels: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Advanced glycation end products (AGE) and their receptors (RAGE) have been implicated in developing periodontal complications in diabetic patients. This study aimed to identify salivary AGE, RAGE, soluble RAGE (sRAGE), and active‐matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8) levels at varying glycemic levels in periodontitis patients ...

Influence of rheumatoid arthritis on peri‐implant diseases: A longitudinal retrospective clinical and radiographic evaluation

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To investigate the effect of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on the incidence of peri‐implantitis (PI) and peri‐implant mucositis (PIM). Methods Radiographic and clinical chart reviews were conducted to measure the probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing, and marginal bone loss (MBL) around the implants to diagnose peri‐implant diseases ...

Association between periodontitis severity and prostate‐specific antigen levels using the NHANES data

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis has been linked to various systemic health conditions. This study investigated whether the association between periodontitis and prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) is direct or mediated through intermediary systemic diseases.

Treatment of peri‐implantitis with diode laser or mucosal flap surgery: A clinical randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a major challenge as contemporary nonsurgical treatments show dissatisfactory results and mucosal flap surgery is often needed. Diode lasers can remove granulation tissue and submucosal bacteria, and if it achieves similar clinical results, then it could be used as a less invasive first approach.

Metformin reverses periodontal destruction caused by experimental periodontitis by inhibiting interleukin‐1β activity

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a destructive disease that affects periodontal tissue. While current research focuses on disease management, research on tissue repair remains limited. Metformin, a first‐line medication for diabetes treatment, has positive effects on bone health in nondiabetic patients.
